How to Clean Chandliers One method is simply to wipe each crystal with a damp chamois. Or try our two-glove method. Wear white cotton gloves, one dampened with Windex® and one dry. Caress the crystal with the damp glove and wipe it dry immediately with the dry glove. ! We never use spray cleaners because sooner or later they’ll work their way into any microscopic nicks or scratches in the frame finish and cause corrosion, even with 24-karat gold or brass frames. Frames should only be wiped with a dry cloth. Moisture is a no-no. Some people remove all the crystal to clean chandelier . Others like to clean a chandelier as it hangs, fully trimmed. Let the design of your chandelier and your personal preference be your guide. Locate your trim diagram before removing any crystal, so you’ll know how to reassemble the chandelier. If you’ve lost your trim diagram, the nearest showroom that carries Schonbek chandeliers can probably give you a replacement on the spot. Before cleaning, put a towel or blanket under the chandelier so that, if you dislodge a piece of crystal, your table or floor won’t suffer a nick (and the crystal is more likely to survive). Never twirl or rotate your chandelier. When cleaning, walk or move your ladder around the chandelier and clean in sections. By rotating a chandelier you risk loosening its support, which could cause the chandelier or its crystals to fall. The electrical wiring of the chandelier could also be damaged, risking fire or electrical shock. To brighten the whole chandelier, be sure and wipe the light bulbs. But wait till they’re completely cool. And don’t touch the bulbs with anything wet; it can cause them to shatter. Never put crystal in the dishwasher! Fine crystal picks up fingerprints very easily. In the Schonbek factory, we never handle crystal with our bare hands. When dressing or cleaning your chandeliers, either wear white gloves or use the finger cots. We know people who clean their chandeliers every few months, because they love handling the crystal and admiring it close up. Others do a cleaning every six or nine months. Frequency of cleaning depends on chandelier location, type of crystal and shape of the crystal jewels. For example, Strass® crystal manufactured in the last decade has a surface that repels dust and needs cleaning only very occasionally. Handcut crystal pendeloques tend to show dust, but they are easy to clean because of their size and flatness. Crystal needs cleaning when it appears dusty or dull. Just look at your chandelier frequently (always enjoyable), and you’ll know when to reach for the white gloves. If you have a chandelier with the grime of centuries on it, you can try a solution of warm water and a small amount of white vinegar and dishwashing liquid. Just remember to remove the crystal for this operation to avoid corrosion of the frame. Source: All About Crystal
